The progressive enhancement is almost trivial. I'll explain it at the
next GoLUG meeting. I'll try to put something about the grid stuff too.
It can be challenging, but not that bad.

CSS is the most beautiful technology I've ever seen, and it has pretty
clear definitions. The problem is that nobody's teaching it right, and
that nobody uses ALL its capabilities, because knowing all its
capability would be a very heavy lift.

Come to the next GoLUG meeting, and send me any questions beforehand.
